Today, I present to you a review of TorchLight. Not the physical object that helps shine light in dark places, but a game named somewhat after it. TorchLight is a action role-playing game, similar to that of perhaps diablo and FATE. The designers and developers of the game are part of those two games I mentioned, therefore they are extremely similar in terms of game concept and design. The brief outline of the game is basically you choosing a character, taking some quests, go into dungeons, kill the monsters, come back out, finish the quest, repeat. Sounds boringly repetitive? Nah, it is totally addictive. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Continue reading

How not to sell a Wii
The safety precautions diagrams and instructions that are present everywhere in the wii box, manual etc should be followed whether you are a developer, a gamer or even a sales person. This video shows the dangers of not strapping on your wii accessories to your hand. Okay, this ain’t new since such cases are already widely known for quite some time already. However, this is definitely worth a watch. The sales person is on Live television and his job then was to sell the wii. Haha, what a way to smash a lcd screen on live telecast. Now, I hope people who watched will learn from his mistake and not repeat it. Besides, those people who just bought a new set have no excuses for not strapping.

PC Fifa 10 Review
NOTE: The version I’m reviewing is the PC version. The score and comments given is solely for the PC version and have nothing to do with the portable mobile versions nor the console versions.
I still can remember myself reviewing Fifa 09 for the pc last year. I had a hard time controlling my emotions and not let them affect my review too much. Two years ago, they promised the Be A Pro mode for Fifa 09 but failed to deliver. This year, they didn’t promise to do anything and they were successful in doing so. Fifa 10 = Fifa 09. Yes fanboys, that is the sad truth. This year’s version is simply Fifa 09 with the squad updates. Even so, many of the last few transfers of the season isn’t even implemented in the game. Absolutely horrible and terrible. Continue reading
Left 4 Teletubbies L4D Mod
I’ve seen many mods created for Left 4 Dead. It ranges from nudity mods to mods that makes the game a little more freaky.
Today, I’ve stumbled on a video that made me laugh and cry at the same time. I present to you… Left 4 Dead Teletubbies.
It is really funny at first seeing the teletubbies running towards you trying to hug you or something. Then seeing you take your guns shooting the shit out of their faces and bodies makes it even more hilarious. However, after a while of watching it kind of gets scary in a very unique way. As in, kids television programme running towards you waves after waves? Blood dripping from their faces and bodies? Ouch, better not show this to the kids. They might get nightmares or hate you for life.
Flameknight7 made a mod that changes all the common infected to Teletubbies. The complete package comes with a sound mod and you hear the zombies saying “Eh oh” and at the end of a round, listen to the music.

A Reckless Disregard For Gravity Review
The full title for the game should be “AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! — A Reckless Disregard for Gravity”. That’s right, 25 As followed by a title that makes better sense. Didn’t want to put the full title for it might screw up the template somehow. Anyways, A Reckless Disregard For Gravity (ARDFG for short) is a unique game developed by the indie developers Dejobaan. This game, inspired by the activity called BASE jumping, sets players in a situation like no other. You are basically jumping down from up above whether is it the mountain area or city like area, collecting points as you stay close to floating buildings or the walls.
Guild Wars 2 Trailer
The gamer within me is getting orgasmic. I’ve always wanted to play guildwars but just didn’t had the time to do so. It dragged on and on till Guildwars 2 was annouced. That made me feel that I should spend the money on guildwars 2 instead, so now I’ve just got to wait a little longer. Hope when it comes out I wouldn’t be too busy to spend time playing it.
The trailer after the jump.
